Situated on the banks of the Rufiji River, with views down to the plunging torrents of Stiegler's Gorge, Serena Mivumo River lodge offers just twelve timbered chalets each with a private viewing deck and plunge pool. Traditionally thatched, with high vaulted ceilings and picture windows, each room features a mix of classic safari antiques and contemporary leather and rattan styled furniture.

There is a spacious central dining room, lounge, library and bar, each having their own spacious timber and thatched chalets, which are interconnected by broad wooden walkways offering excellent views of the hippos and elephants on the riverbank. There is also a spectacular 'infinity' pool and sundeck.

Vast, pristine and largely undiscovered, the spectacular Selous Game Reserve is a World Heritage Site and the largest expanse of game reserve in Africa. Covering 55,000 square kilometres of rolling savannah, lakes, rivers and deltas, it is four times the size of the Serengeti and larger than the entire nation of Switzerland. Home to the largest concentrations of elephants in the world, this unique wildlife arena also boasts some of the most exclusive and pioneering boating safaris that Africa has to offer.
